M.

Last night, I laid by you in the dark for a long, long time. I listened to you jabber on, then settle in, and when I held your face in my hand, you held mine in yours. We stayed like this for so long, until you asked if I was crying.

What sweet moments you and I have together.


I was so aware last night of how you are slipping right from me. And as certain as daddy and I are that you'll always be our baby, I'm starting to wonder. I'm starting to see you grow and become so in tune with need and emotion. You are so smart and tender. You're my little boy now. You're changing right before my eyes. How remarkable and heartbreaking and sweet.

I love you so much!
